  • On this episode of Point Game with John Wall and C.J. Toledano, they're joined by Olympic gold medalist, 4x NBA All-Star, Kentucky basketball legend, Demarcus "Boogie" Cousins! John and Boogie reminisce on their old college days as teammates and share hilarious, never-before-heard stories about their time at Kentucky together, including the times they hung out with Drake, as well as what it was like entering the league at the same time. John also gives his thoughts on the Kevin Durant and heckling fans incident, who not to mess with in the NBA, and whether a team should draft Bronny James in order to also get his dad, LeBron.

    John and Demarcus I hope yall truly know the impact you had on Kentucky man. This 100 comes from the heart. It was absolutely perfect timing and was my sophomore year at UK. Yall gave us hope again, and it was the funnest time of my life. I don't care that you didnt bring it all home, between John, Boogie, Bled, Ppat ranks right up there as my favorite team ever at UK not just because of the results on the court, but what you did for the school and state that I love. Thank you fellas, I will forever be grateful and I will die on the hill that yall were the best things to ever happen for Kentucky basketball.

I truly believe Calipari and Kentucky should have a title in 2010 ( Wall , Cousins ) , 2011 ( Knight , Jones ) , 2012 ( AD , Gilchrist ) , 2014 ( Randle , Harrison Twins ) , 2015 ( Towns , Booker ) , 2017 ( Monk , Fox , Adebayo ).
